Assembly image viewing angle incorrect when LDView is used to render

[d-j-m-0]

Subject

When the Native renderer is used and a ROTSTEP applied, the rendered assembly images align with the ROTSTEP command. Page 1:

Page 2:

When the renderer is set to LDView, although the standard STEP command is rendered as expected. Page 1:

The image generated for the ROTSTEP is incorrect:. Page 2:

Environment

• Version of LPub3D - r246 v354
• Operating system - Windows 10, x86_64

Configuration

• Renderer configuration files
  • [Application data path]/ldv/ldvExport.ini
  • [Application data path]/3rdParty/ldview-4.5/config/ldview.ini
  • [Application data path]/3rdParty/ldview-4.5/config/ldviewPOV.ini Contained in the attached zip file.

Screenshots

• Configuration->Preferences->General

• Configuration->Preferences->Rendering

Steps to reproduce

In LPub3D, set the renderer to Native. Open the mpd found within the attached zip. Navigate to page 2. Close the mpd file. Set the render to LDView, Open the mpd file. Navigate to page 2.

Expected behaviour

The image generated when using LDView would be taken from a similar viewpoint as that when using the native renderer.

Actual behaviour

The LDView assembly image is generated from side on rather than the elevated position.

Workaround

USe the Native renderer instead of LDView.

Solution suggestion

None known.

Thank you for reporting this behaviour.

Indeed. It looks like I broke this in #718, but it is now corrected.

The correction will be in the next release build.

Cheers,
